The longlist for the BBC Sound of 2020 has been revealed! And I think it's their best one in years. Arlo Parks Beabadoobee Celeste Easy Life Georgia Inhaler Joesef Joy Crookes Squid Yungblud Would love to see Bea, Easy Life, Inhaler, Squid or Yungblud take it. |

Really like Georgia, but she's been going on for ages |

I feel pretty lukewarm on this list, beabadoobee would probably be my pick from the bunch in terms of being consistently good I guess, Georgia also has potential but 'Never Let You Go' is the only song I've really loved from her. Also like what I have heard from Easy Life and Squid.
Unfortunately think it'll almost certainly be YUNGBLUD winning. Maybe Celeste has a chance too based on her winning the BRITs Rising Star. |

Yungblud/Georgia/Celeste are the only well known ones from that!

The people on these lists aren't really supposed to be well-known lol ~
I think I've heard at least one song by all of these except Inhaler and Joesef. |

Inhaler are worth a listen, my fave song is Ice Cream Sundae. The lead singer is the son of Bono.

I'm not a fan of U2 at all, but it didn't stop me giving them a listen. There's still 3 other members not related to him

I know and like most of this list, which makes a change. Easy Life they recently sold out a tour playing about a dozen 1.5-2.5k venues and have a song with 12m Spotify streams, that feels pretty big for something like this.
I'd love it if Georgia has some success next year This post has been edited by RabbitFurCoat: 17th December 2019, 08:53 PM |

I wonder if these acts will be as bland as their stage names suggest?
